This year was a testament to that philosophy, balancing personal milestones, technical board projects, and some pretty consistent surf on the Space Coast.

When I was a kid there weren't many dudes as cool as Gee Rainbow. He road dirt bikes, sported a badass mullet, and he made his own surfboards.

The surf has been pretty decent this past month with a lot of nice weather to boot. Makes me think about how cold I used to be surfing this month just a few years ago.

The combination of funky bottoms, rumbling winds, and just a general lack of swell has kept the Space Coast mostly under head high...

Right now I've got 11 surfboards in play for this winter, with another hybrid custom order from Quiet Flight in the works...
